Eppur mi son scordato di te [English translation]

And yet I forgot about you,

how I did it, I don’t know.

A real reason doesn’t exist,

she was beautiful, yet.

A dip where the water is bluer,

nothing more.

What desperation

is borne out of a distraction!

She was a fling,

she was not a fire.

Don’t cry, you silly fool

with the copper-green hair.

It’s just a fling

and not a fire.

You know that I love you,

I truly love you!

And yet I forgot about you,

I didn’t say no to her.

I made you cry so much because

I am a brute, I know.

A dip where the water is bluer,

nothing more.

But what desperation

is borne out of a distraction!

She was a fling,

she was not a fire.

Don’t cry, you silly fool

with the copper-green hair.

It’s just a fling

and not a fire.

You know that I love you,

I truly love you!

(What desperation is borne out of

a distraction, is borne out of

a distraction. What

desperation is borne out of

a distraction, is borne out of

a distraction. What

desperation is borne out of

a distraction, is borne out of

a distraction. What

desperation is borne out of)

A dip where the water is bluer,

nothing more.

is borne out of a distraction!

(Don’t cry, you silly fool

with the copper-green hair.

It’s only a fling,)

and not a fire.

(What desperation

is borne out of a distraction!

is borne out of a distraction!

She was a fling,)

she was not a fire.
